Typhoon Bebinca, the 13th typhoon of the year, is forecasted to make landfall in Zhejiang province & Shanghai during the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival holiday.
Bebinca is moving northwest at 30-35 kilometers per hour, gradually intensifying. It could potentially strengthen to a severe typhoon. Zhang Fa, a staff member of the Provincial Flood, Typhoon, and Drought Control Headquarters, stated, “The typhoon will pass through the Ryukyu Islands, entering the East China Sea by the night of September 14.
It is expected to make landfall between northern Zhejiang and Shanghai between the night of September 15 and the morning of September 16 at typhoon or strong typhoon intensity. After landfall, it will gradually weaken.
But during landing, it will bring heavy rainfall to northern Zhejiang and Shanghai, particularly from the night of the 15th to the day of the 16th—during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday.
Shanghai: what to expect
From 15th evening to the 16th, heavy rain is expected in Shanghai, with total rainfall between 60-90 mm and locally up to 120-180 mm. Wind gusts could reach 9-11 on land and 12-14 near the coast.
However, the typhoon's impact will be brief, and the weather in Shanghai is expected to calm down by Tuesday the 17th, the day of Mid-Autumn Festival.

Sunday, September 15, and Tuesday, September 17, currently seem alright for travel in Shanghai and nearby provinces, but please exercise caution and stay updated with the latest news.
